Top 11 Ukrainian drones that fight the occupiers: description, characteristics

What is known "Dovbush", "Inquisitor", "Elf", "Witch" and other UAVs created by Ukrainian engineers for the Armed Forces. The full -scale war in Ukraine has been going on for over 10 months, during which time many teams have been formed in the country that are developing domestic drones. The dev. ua portal spoke about unique Ukrainian drones that help the military on the battlefield.

A group of engineers from the Dnieper has created a reconnaissance unmanned aircraft "Dovbush T10", which has been tested on the forefront since the beginning of the war. They recently launched mass production of drones. "Dovbush T10" is equipped with six grenades for the RPG, each of which is powerful enough to destroy the tank, other combat equipment or the live power of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

During the test, the drone showed the accuracy of three meters at a height of 100 meters - a good indicator, although the developers plan to improve it. It is emphasized that software and special equipment protect the drone from Russian electronic warfare. For example, the apparatus does not leave a heat mark, and the housing is made of materials that can not recognize radars.

Engineers of the Ukrainian organization "Black Raven" collected a cheap drone EBOsh, designed to destroy the equipment of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. It is a light and fast quadcopter with a plastic pipe, where the GOP-17 pomegranate is charged. The operator controls the drone with the help of glasses with a first person, and a special design allows you to rotate the device at any angles during flight. Black Raven conducted an EBOsh drone test by destroying the Moskvich car.

Thanks to the first person, the accuracy of UAV-Kamikadze is very high, but the range is only 2 km, although the developers have promised to increase it twice. The speed reaches 150 km/h. Elf-Systems from Kharkiv has recently introduced the unmanned Elf aircraft for medium-sized intelligence (up to 150 km). He received a navigation system protected from obstacles to identify Russian radio electronic systems.

Radars can "see" drone, but because of small size and light materials it is easy to confuse it with the bird. According to the developers, "Elf" combines good characteristics with low price and unpretentious service. It is intended to replace expensive foreign analogues and has already been tested in military units in eastern Ukraine.

In October, UkrsPecysystems presented the Ukrainian unmanned SHARK reconnaissance complex in October, the main feature of which was a camera with 30 times optical zoom, which allows to consider the position of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation from a distance of up to 5 km. Engineers were able to lift the device into the sky only six months after the start of development. Shark can conduct intelligence for HIMARS, flying into the rear of the invaders up to 60 km.

The flight time is more than 4 hours, and the preparation and launch of the drone with the help of catapult takes only 15 minutes. Air models from the Dnieper have developed an exploration drone "Coldun", which has been conducting intelligence for the Armed Forces for several months. Air -type unmanned apparatus resists a radio electronic fight and almost imperceptible from the ground. It can fly autonomously and remove the surface from a height of 300-500 m.

Initially, the team from the Federation of Aviation Sports of Dnipropetrovsk region collects "Caldins" by office, and now went to serial production. The equipment allows to make up to 200 UAVs a month, there would be accessories. Coolon founder Vitaliy Brizgalov developed a Dron-Kamikadze Brigade Level with a flight range of about 300 km. The Iranian UAVs of the ShahED line are flying further, but the Ukrainian model can still get to critically important objects in Russia.

The cost of the drone is $ 2000, which is ten times cheaper than ShahED-136. The drone carries a warhead weighing 10 kg designed to destroy the warehouses and armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Andriy Budzinsky, Yaroslav Sadovyi and Oleg Penderetsky developed for the Armed Forces of Quadcopters, capable of dropping shells weighing up to 2 kg. He received four independent reset systems that allows you to dump ammunition separately. The cost of one drone is $ 3300.

Currently, Lviv engineers are raising funds to transfer UAV to the soldiers of 503 of a separate battalion of the Marines of the Armed Forces. Zaporizhzhya engineers presented a military drone "Domakh", which was named after the Cossack saber. The design with good aerodynamics allows the aircraft to perform combat missions even in difficult weather conditions, when quadcopters do not cope.

In the current configuration, Domakha can only be explored at a distance of up to 50 km, but in the future, the developers plan to create a shock version. The camera transmits high resolution video so that the operator can cite artillery and adjust the fire. In the Kirovograd region, a new intelligence drone was created, which will test the forces of special operations.

According to the developers, the unmanned aircraft has received functions and characteristics that can not provide commercial drones. A group of enthusiasts, under the patronage of Lviv businessman Andrei Matsola, created quadcopters for intercepting Iranian drones-Kamikadze in the future. The copter lifts a weight to 16 kg, and a real battle can deliver ammunition up to 2 kg at a distance of 20 km.

He can drop ammunition on Russian tanks in a clean field or fly in a building, striking the enemy's live power. In the next three months, the team plans to transfer to the military about 100 quadcopters of their own manufacture and to teach the same number of operators. Representatives of the Armed Forces believe that such devices will help the army greatly if used systematically.

Servicemen from the 56th Brigade of the Armed Forces, together with engineers, began to develop a drone called "Inquisitor". So far, the creators have only a computer model of the device, but they assure that everyone has accurately calculated and ready to collect UAVs as soon as they collect money and buy the necessary equipment.
